U didnt give exact error description. It will be hard to help U.
Anyway did U mounted msdos partition from fstab untill reallocated it?
And did U change ur fstab after that?
How did U allocate new 165 partition?
Generally U might allocate all the dskspace on new partition to be one or
to be splitted in several slices.
How ur fstab reflects changes? Did U create new devices nodes in /dev?
Did U created mount points for slices?
